Sydney councillor resigns from Hunter's Hill Council over 'toxic chamber'

Key points

• Independent councillor Marc Lane has quit Hunters Hill Council mid-term, citing his mental health and decisions he says are made on party political lines. In a social media video, he described the chamber as a toxic chamber and criticised plans to examine 18 council-owned land parcels for potential sale.
• Mayor Zac Miles said councillors behaved with integrity and respect, and that no land has been agreed to be sold.
• He also said the Gladesville Shopping Village rezoning would deliver more public space and housing opportunities.
